Not as customisable as Android. There are very few changes in the UI & the features available are much less compared to other leading phones in the market like Samsung Galaxy Note 2
Selected optimised apps and games for the 4inch display
Maps
Taller screen might be a bit uncomfortable for a few
IOS is starting to look dated
Maps and Navigation is of very poor quality outside the US

In many respects this latest iPhone is the most desirable yet, with its gorgeous 4in display, a lighter, slimmer chassis, decent battery life and improved iCloud and social networking integration. And let's not forget that Apple's App Store still ...
Right now, in Australia's smartphone market, buyers have a plethora of great options from manufacturers such as Samsung, HTC, Nokia and even Motorola . All of these companies have great handsets with awesome touchscreens, support for 4G speeds, great cam...
Most people thought that the iPhone 5 is just a slimmer and taller iPhone 4S. I even made a joke about this when someone asked me about “Hey, how’s your iPhone 5? What’s the difference?”. I answered “It’s slimmer and taller!”. iPhone 5 is not just slim...
After a couple of days with the iPhone 5, I come away feeling mixed emotions. On one hand, it is a great phone - it's fast, the screen is gorgeous, it has an amazing camera and LTE is truly mind-blowing on the iPhone 5. But, and there's a few I'll add...
Super thin and light design, Excellent 4in display, Outstanding camera
Scratches and chips easily, Poor battery life, Extra screen size isn't always utilised

Same slick performance as with previous iPhones. 4G is a welcome addition. Longer display adds needed screen real estate. Earpods are very comfortable
iOS is still mostly uncustomisable. Design isn't as nice to hold as it is to look at. No HDMI, micro USB or memory expansion, unless you pay for adapters. No NFC
The changes to iPhone 5 and iOS will be appreciated by current users of the iPhone, but Apple's rigid design principles may have many looking to the alternatives....

So, is the iPhone 5 worth the money? Absolutely. And has Apple done enough to reclaim the top smartphone spot with the iPhone 5? It has, but not quite in the imperious style of the past. Android has gained so much in the last 12 months that the iPhone wen...
